  3. Heat oil in a skillet to a depth of about ½ inch over medium heat.
  4. Coat each chicken breast in the flour mixture, then dip in eggs, and finally coat in breadcrumbs and Parmesan.
  5. Fry the coated chicken in the hot oil for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F.
